Fashion takes a slight embarrassment - in front of computer nerds at least.  Christian Louboutin has released a new shoe said to be modeled after a modern day computer code but high-tech site BetaBeat pointed out that the shoe's graphic actually resembles a circuit diagram of a computer chip. Apparently that's a huge difference.

Fashion has joined the digital age since recent, having QR codes for fashion week related events, streaming live shows, and Yves Saint Laurent has even created a Facebook color palette eye shadow.  Louboutin's latest "Lady Peep" may have failed at "high-tech" but at least it's high-fashion (that's all that matters anyway right?).

The digitally graphic printed peep toe pump sells at $1,695.  The red bottom heel is captioned with, "Her intricate satin & embroidery pattern was modeled after modern day computer code. Monsieur Louboutin turned an elaborate programming language into a geek chic pump this season and the results are simply stunning."
